Pizza Using a Pizza Screen
A pizza screen promotes a more evenly baked crust by allowing air to circulate beneath the crust–and it makes a delicious pizza!

Difficulty: Easy

Servings: 2-4

Prep Time: 45 minutes   Cook Time: 10-15 minutes  

Ingredients

1 cup warm water
1 teaspoon yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
approximately 2 1/2 cups flour

Directions

Combine water, yeast, and sugar in a bowl. Let sit 5 minutes then add salt, olive oil, and first cup of flour. Stir and continue adding flour until it’s too hard to stir, then start kneading, add more flour until a smooth, pliable dough is formed. (You can also use a food processor or stand mixer to make the dough if you prefer.) This is not the time to go for a wetter dough–make sure it’s sturdy or it will stick later. Place dough in a greased bowl and let rise about 30 minutes.

Place dough on a well-floured surface. (Add a little cornmeal to the surface, too.) Roll, shape, stretch dough into a 12-inch circle. Spray a pizza screen WELL. Transfer the dough to the pizza screen, making sure the bottom of the dough is still well-floured.

Add toppings. Bake anywhere from 425 to 500 degrees. A lower temperature will make a softer crust. A higher temperature will make a crispier, chewier crust. (Don’t walk away–it cooks fast at 500!)

    I made this for the first time today… It was almost a zen experience!! There is just something about having dough under your fingertips that is alive and springy and almost crackly when you are shaping it…. The kids loved the pizza!
